White · Light · Dry

Italy's everyday white — light, lemony, neutral by design. Pleasant with anything; profound with very little. The best Friuli bottles are quietly excellent.

Sparkling · Light · Off-dry

Veneto's everyday sparkler — Glera grape, charmat method, frothier and fruitier than Champagne. Pear, white flowers, easy fun. Made for aperitivo.

Red · Medium · Dry

American wines made in the Italian idiom — Sangiovese, Barbera, or Super-Tuscan-style blends from California or Washington. Cherry-driven, food-friendly, often a great value.

Red · Full · Dry

Barolo's slightly softer sibling — same Nebbiolo grape, lighter touch, ready to drink younger. Elegance over power, with a perfume of violets and a long, savory finish.

Red · Medium · Dry

Sangiovese from Tuscany's historic heartland — denser fruit, longer finish, and a structure that rewards aging. The pizza wine, elevated.

Red · Full · Dry

California's brawler — jammy blackberry, brambly spice, and 15% alcohol that hides behind the fruit. Built for ribs, brisket, and anything that came off a grill.
